Eclipse of the Crown

Villains and Virtues, Book 3

De: A. K. Caggiano

Narrado por: Ellen Quay, Seth Podowitz

Their destinies are irrevocably entangled, but will their bond be the realm’s undoing?

Damien and Amma have landed themselves in the midst of Yvlcon, the preeminent congregation of the vilest and most unscrupulous villains in existence. Once again amongst his peers, Damien’s moral growth is threatened just when he’s learning to be slightly less evil. Consequently, Amma finds her own virtue in peril when faced with so much temptation, namely in the form of a domineering blood mage she can’t—or doesn’t want—to say no to.

But a burgeoning romance is doused in the coldest of baths when the Grand Order of Dread commands Damien to once again face the swirling vortex of entropy that’s been hunting them all over the realm. The coming eclipse points to devastation and destruction, and there seems to be no avoiding annihilation, prophecy being, well, prophecy, after all.

But there’s an entire fortnight before the world is supposed to end, and surely that’s enough time to find some way around it, or to at least confess one’s devotion to the other before it all burns down around them.

So good! So good you see!

Excellent book, great story. Building the world in a great and fun way. Highly recommend it

So good!

This whole series is such a surprise, it’s so perfect. Everything I’ve ever wanted from a fantasy novel. Highly recommend the series (this is book 3)

Loved!

I absolutely adored this conclusion—it tied up all the loose ends perfectly!

This might become my new go-to comfort read.

Cthulhu and cuddles: an odd combo that worked

“The Grand Order Of Dread”
Gotta love an evil organization named G.O.O.D. This was a weird combo of Megamind/Despicable Me levels of dastardliness (and a similar level of fun) with a YA level of innuendo, F bombs and sex scenes. Darned if that didn’t work for me.

“It turns out I’m just as abductible as you are.”
There’s still another ten hours of wandering to and fro encountering goblins and supernatural coitus-interuptus… but Amma and Damien finally seal the deal (and it’s not fade to black, and I was happy for them). That’s also about when the story finally gets down to the original plot about Damien bringing on the apocalypse. It was fun. It was sweet. It was long. But, this was overall totes adorable.

Clever

I loved the subtle forth wall breaks hahaha the story was so good my heart is happy

Must read. I will be rereading and relistening this series forever.

This book is absolutely incredible. Everything I ever wanted from a fantasy book and romance and more. I can’t believe the books actually got better and better. I’m so sad it’s ending.

The audio is perfect. Every voice and style and cadence. It’s actually more fun to listen to than read and that doesn’t happen often.

Fun & quirky

I thought some of the banter was top notch. I really enjoyed the male narrators voice(s) for the various characters.

Loved it!

The narrators did an amazing job, loved the imps! Really fun world and a great story.

So cute and funny 10/10

I loved this series. Every book was good and the narration was a perfect pairing to the witty funny and sweet writing

Delightful

Loved this little romp. Sweet, salty and spicy! The voice actors were amazing. Pitch and pacing really clicked right along. Never a dull moment and I binged the whole series.
